ATTACKING SWUGCLERS-

Many millions of dollars worth of goods are annually sent through the New York cus- tom house either undervalued ,undermeasured or wrongly classified, so that in either case they escape payment of the full duty which is supposed to be exacted. These practices make trouble for importers who try to do business honestly, and the goods thus snug gled in are sold in competition with Ameri- can goods, which are thus deprived of the protection which the tariff was meant to give. The wrong has been seriously felt for long time. and bill to prevent it's contin- uance has been reported to the Senate and 1t, or something like it. will eventually be- come law.
 How the fraud has worked is we'll illus trated by the experience of a prominent New England woolen manufacturer. Finding his goods unstable on his hands he was surpris- ed to find on investigation that the cause lay in the exceedingly low price at which certain foreign goods of his own class were being of fered in the American market-so low, in fact, that it was absolutely impossible that they could have paid the full duty. Further investigation disclosed the fact that while these foreign goods were to all appearances all wool and were sold as such, yet analysis showed slight admixture of cotton put in by the foreign manufacturers to evade the duty. The goods were then sent through the custom house classified as cotton mixtures and paid the low rate provided for such class instead of the high duty imposed on all- wools. At the instance of several New Eng land manufacturers the secretary of the treas ury issued order that hereafter such goods should be taxed at the high rate. The inn porters asked for 8 hearing on the matter, and the final decision is yet to be made. But within thirty days after the first order no less than million dollars worth of these foreign goods were received in the general store house to await the issue of the question.
 Of course it will be impossible to prevent all such frauds, but much can undoubtedly be done in the right direction. Honest busi- ness men are entitled to the protection which the proposed law will give them.

 The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Times corroborates the report l that the Democrats have already got enough | of free trade. The bottom has dropped com pletely out, says the correspondent. Demo- cratic congressman have heard from their
 constituents. Some of them, who at the
 opening of the session were for degrading and 1 accommodating MT. Randall without more ado, are now turning to him to get them out I of their scrape. There is even talk of the | advisability of promoting him from the chair l manship of the appropriations to that of the l ways and means by way of reassuring the alarmed constituencies and giving them 8 guaranty of the conservatism of the maior- l 1ty's revised intentions. Speaker Carlisle l sees the reasons for a new deal as plainly as anyone; and large number of his friends "and also the President" fear that MT. Mills
 as chairman of the ways and means will be mistake; but he is committed to Mir. Mills.
 and is greatly embarrassed in consequence. Count Joachim Pfell, the German African explorer, says: We often saw an animal in ~o 'SA3 esAOAs GAO COe1SG Ol I1S O1aQSa QlS-
 trict, that we first believed to be a serpent
 from the movements, and from the fact that
 only now and then it appeared on the surs
 face for few seconds. Once, when we shot
 at it, we were surprised to see it rise out of
 the water and fly away. Afterward we suc-
 ceeded in obtaining one of the curious crea-
 lures. It was about the size of large tame
 duck, with black plumage and metallic
 lustre On it's wings we noticed very few
 light feathers. The neck was very long and
 thin, and ended in long, pointed beak, at
 the edge of which were two rows of sharp
 teeth. At first sight no head was visible, and the neck appeared to end only in beak
 The whole of the bird is under the water
 while swimming, only the long neck being
 seen. If it was frightened it disappeared al-
 together under the water or flew rapidly
 away. Another peculiarity we noticed was
 that when the bird had left the water it lay down on a bush with the outatretched wings
 to get dry. The flesh of the creature has an unpleasant oily favor.

A Profess1onai Economist,

The other evening a good-looking man about 26 years old, wearing a dress suit, came down the aisle in the Star Theater
 ten minutes after MT. Irving appeared as Mephistopheles, and with the air of a millionaire sat down in three-dollar seat.
 "He has small income, but he is always on hand at high priced entertainments said l gentleman who occupied a seat next to 8 Mail and Express reporter and not far from the late conner.
 "How does he do it?"
 "He is good fellow and as far as eeon- omy goes he is 8 genius. If there were many like him, his economy would not avail him anything, because the profession would be too crowded. He occupies a S3 seat, but
 paid only $1. 50 for it. It costs him S1 to come in and he paid the head usher 50 cents for the privilege of occupying 8 seat the rapacious ticket speculator could not dispose of. Ten minutes after the curtain goes up the shreWd usher knows pretty much the empty seats that will not be occupied. When
 the genius gave him 50 cents for seat he made certain of a rebate in case a late
 conner should claim it. The rebate is 25 cents or 50 per cent. no scaling, no postpone- ment. Concerts? Why, this kind never pay JO go IO IHSu. ne OrSSS6S well, ana concert managers only too glad to get him to act as first class material to paper the house. There are few concerts that can absolutely claim full paid house.
 fAt the fashionable restaurants he is fre- quently seen with lady. He orders for one and receives for three. The young woman does not know he has ordered for one, because he writes the order. When he goes alone he orders only one or two dishes. His greatest trouble is when necessity forces him 50 ride in cab, and the way he brings the Jehu down to regular schedule prices is something that should be emulated by the average citizen, who permits 'cabby' to fleece him. Boutonnieres and eorsage bou- quets he easily buys at half price. He does that by drumming for the house he pur- chases from. His clothing is bought on the same plan the flowers, and often the tailor is happy to make sure of 50 per cent. below his regular prices. It is well known fact that tailors make the Dutchman's 1 per cent. on many of their customers, but they do not lose on the goods, no matter how cheap they pretend to be. You rarely hear of one of his kind acting as groomsman at a wedding be- cause he would be required to buy handsome present. If you ever did you may rest as sured that the present was purchased by the bridegroom.
